MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 5 Entering the New World for the First Time (5)
Xia Zhiyi would not be moral to ghosts who want to die.
It is a waste of effort to do the thing of playing the piano with a cow.
Isn't it just that you are less human than a ghost, whoever is afraid of whom!
Jing Ruyu saw it.
Not only did her ex-girlfriend adapt to the environment extremely quickly, she even started her own way of trying to survive.
Very good, very good, at least the task NPC was really stunned—even if it was just for a while.
Xiaoqiao came back to her senses and sneered: "Trick me? They don't have the guts."
She lifted the lamp in her hand up, her eyes dim: "I admit that I don't blame you for the tray, but don't forget, you have to finish the work, and you are not allowed to rest until you finish."
Then he pointed the candle lamp at Jing Ruyu, and urged him with deep meaning: "Go in quickly."
Jing Ruyu raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression didn't change much.
Xia Zhiyi's eyes wandered between the two.
She could see that Xiaoqiao had greater malice towards Jing Ruyu.
Malice without reason.
"Are you scared?" Xiaoqiao stared at Jing Ruyu intently.
Jing Ruyu said, "Afraid? Of course I'm afraid."
Xiao Qiao immediately showed a satisfied smile.
"I'm afraid that after I go in, I will be distracted because the flower arrangement is too boring, and then I will be charged with bad hands by the little housekeeper, so..."
While speaking, Jing Ruyu had already walked to Xiaoqiao's side, and hooked Xiaoqiao's slender arm with a smile on her face.
"Please come in with us, and with your supervision, I will definitely work hard and have nothing else to do."
The small smile instantly froze on her lips: "?"
Xia Zhiyi thought of the way the ghost servant was hiding from Xiaoqiao, and realized it instantly, strode forward, snatched the lamp from Xiaoqiao's hand, and grabbed her other arm.
"I think what she said makes sense. Coincidentally, we really need you. Let's go!"
"You—wait—"
Before Xiaoqiao could finish speaking, the two of them took advantage of their height to pick him up like a hooligan and walked inside, forcing the task NPC to be a supervisor.
As they expected, there were mission NPCs present, and the ghosts did not appear to harm anyone again.
After thinking about it, this might also be a way for players to protect themselves.
Xiao Qiao is a bit hopeless now.
She is petite, a teenage girl who hasn't fully opened up yet, and at this moment, she is sandwiched between two people, one on the left and one on the right, with her toes barely touching the ground, and she looks so embarrassed.
As a task NPC, she has never been treated like this before, today is really embarrassing!
"You dare to treat me like this, you will regret it later!"
When the opportunity comes, she must kill the two of them first!
The two kept arranging flowers, Jing Ruyu didn't turn her head, and didn't care to talk to each other.
Every breath of air in the ice cellar was against her.
The cold air poured into her limbs and bones, tormenting her nerves wantonly, trying to make her feel sleepy.
But she can't sleep, she can't sleep...
Thinking of this, she braced herself and concentrated.
Xia Zhiyi took the time to perfunctory Xiaoqiao: "Yeah, it's fine, we'll talk about it later."
If they don't do this now, I'm afraid they won't even have the chance to regret it.
Xiaoqiao: "..."
She really wanted to struggle, but she was afraid that she would accidentally kick the cabinet and be spouted by Xia Zhiyi's mouth again.
So she turned to Jing Ruyu and asked bewitchingly, "Don't you want to sleep?"
Jing Ruyu still ignored her.
Xia Zhiyi responded again: "Who wants to sleep when the big freezer is so cold, you? Then you are indeed different from ordinary people, wow!"
She gave her a thumbs up, successfully distracting her attention from Jing Ruyu.
Xiaoqiao: "..."
She doesn't want to talk anymore.
She still likes the one in the morning who would be so frightened that she would be in a daze. She looked stupid like that, easy to handle, and she would not live long at first glance.
After going through the warehouse incident, Xia Zhiyi was not stupid enough to greet the ghosts and NPCs here with a smile, and didn't see if they were willing to talk to her.
So she has to take one step at a time and firmly grasp the chance to save her life in seconds.
Only by living in this moment can we look forward to the future in the next second.
Jing Ruyu turned to look at her, then turned back, without saying anything.
In the end, the two of them successfully completed the task in the ice cellar with the momentum of "holding the emperor to order the princes".
Walking out of the ice cellar, they put Xiao Qiao on the ground.
Xia Zhiyi finally showed a sincere smile: "Thank you, Butler Xiaoqiao, for supporting our work."
Xiao Qiao finally touched the ground with her toes, she couldn't help covering her heart, feeling extremely upset.
After working in this business for so long, this was the first time she was carried away by a player!
"I don't like you guys.
"I'll wait to see how you die!"
After Xiaoqiao finished speaking harshly, she turned around and left.
Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu looked at each other, and walked towards the exit calmly, not paying attention to her words.
There are ghosts everywhere who want people to die. Death is as common as three meals a day. What's the point of listening to one or two cruel words?
Leaving the cold basement, Xia Zhiyi looked up at the still bright sky, and suggested, "Let's go back to the yard for a rest first?"
She could tell that Jing Ruyu was not feeling well in the ice cellar, but Jing Ruyu didn't say anything, plus Xiao Qiao's inexplicable hostility towards Jing Ruyu, she felt that it was time for Jing Ruyu to relax.
No matter how much Jing Ruyu knows, she is still a novice just like her...
Jing Ruyu felt the meager sunlight on her back, her whole body warmed up a little bit, and her complexion also recovered a lot.
"It's still early for dinner," she said, "while there is no mission, let's inquire about the ferry in the mansion. We only have less than three days, and the time is tight."
Xia Zhiyi frowned immediately: "Three days? Aren't we going to stay for four days in total?"
Jing Ruyu also frowned, with a solemn expression: "It's four days, that's right, but I don't think the big wedding day should be included.
"I suspect that day may be the day when the ghost king's restrictions will be lifted."
"Ghost King?"
"Well, ghost king."
"What is that? The final boss like a copy of the game?"
"It can be understood in this way."
"Good guy... what does the lifting of the restriction mean? Is it in a sealed state now?"
"It means..." Jing Ruyu stopped and turned to look at Xia Zhiyi, "It can kill people without restraint, no longer subject to any restrictions."
"hiss-"
Xia Zhiyi gasped, and narrowed her eyes.
Jing Ruyu continued: "As for its current state, where it is, and what it looks like, I don't know, so I know, in the new world, you must be careful and vigilant. Task NPCs will appear in different forms, and the ghost king will also appear in different forms." meeting.
"If you meet the ghost king, you can hide if you can. If you really can't hide, you can only face the ghost king, then don't give up.
"Remember, there is no dead end in the copy of the new world."
Xia Zhiyi thought of the ghost hand cut off by Jing Ruyu in the ice cellar, nodded with a clear understanding, and made an "OK" gesture: "Don't worry, I will remember."
There are always more solutions than difficulties. As long as the ghost king is an entity, she can always come up with ideas to send a wave of physical attacks to the ghost king, and keep running if he can't beat it!
Looking at Jing Ruyu again, she couldn't help but gently thanked her.
Jing Ruyu didn't understand: "Thank you for what?"
Xia Zhiyi said, "Thank you for teaching me so much."
Accompanied by Jing Ruyu, she has learned a lot in less than a day, and at least she is mentally prepared for what will happen next.
And since it was a test, there must be other dungeons later on. At that time, she might not be so lucky to meet someone like Jing Ruyu who was willing to help her again.
In this perilous place, it is good to save your own life first, who has the heart to help others?
Jing Ruyu smiled suddenly: "You're welcome, it's only natural to get to know each other."
Xia Zhiyi raised her eyebrows.
Well, another "acquaintance".
That's right, if she knew so much, she would definitely help her for the sake of "getting acquainted".
Regarding the topic of "getting acquainted for a while", the two tacitly didn't want to talk too much, lest the embarrassment caused by the breakup linger again.
Along the corridor of Gu's mansion, while changing the subject, they searched for NPCs who didn't seem busy and could strike up a conversation.
"In this way, three days is really short."
"That's right."
"Is this a time limit that a novice should have? Since we are novices, shouldn't we allow a few more days? This day is almost over! Tell me, is there any way to add a few more God?"
"Hmm... isn't it impossible?"
The two thought about it for a while, but they had no idea, so they gave up decisively and changed the topic - Jing Ruyu's dagger.
Xia Zhiyi looked around and said, "Since Xiaoqiao can see the ghost knocking over the tray, she should have seen you take out the dagger too, right? Could she not have recognized that it belonged to the Gu family?"
Jing Ruyu shook her head when she heard the words, and said firmly: "No, she recognized it, but she didn't say anything.
"Or, she didn't bother to say it."
In the copy, whether it is the ghost king, the task NPC, or even the entire new world, Jing Ruyu is extremely arrogant in the eyes of Jing Ruyu.
They looked down on the players who broke into the dungeon from above, ignored their death, and treated them like ants.
An ant, even if it has an extra knife in its hand, what kind of trouble can it cause?
Therefore, Jing Ruyu was more inclined to Xiaoqiao's disdain to get the knife back. She felt that it was useless for her to hold it, and it would still be a dead end anyway.
Xia Zhiyi understood what she meant and couldn't help frowning: "I don't like this place."
Jing Ruyu looked at her profile and agreed with a smile: "I don't like it either."
The two of them walked more than half a circle in Gu's mansion but couldn't find any place related to the ferry, not even an NPC to talk to.
Because the NPCs are dedicated to their duties, either they are busy with the arrangement, or they are on the way to get busy, like robots who only know how to work all day long.
Fortunately, this time it was not for nothing.
They met the master of the Gu family and the new son-in-law who was about to marry.
Mr. Gu was dressed in bright clothes, with a goatee on his chin. He was wealthy from head to toe, and he exuded an aura of "I am a rich man".
Compared with him, the new uncle is much more plain, his clothes are nothing eye-catching, but his face is pretty and handsome, which at least proves that the young lady of this family has good aesthetics.
The two walked towards them one after the other, with a clear distinction between primary and secondary.
Behind them were two servants and butler Xiao Qiao.
"Oh, you two are distinguished guests from afar." After approaching, Master Gu spoke first, smiling, "Thank you both for coming to my little girl's wedding. I'm really sorry that I couldn't greet you in person this morning."
The new son-in-law bowed to them in a dignified manner beside him.
Xia Zhiyi frowned.
Hey, are you all polite?
"but…"
As Master Gu said, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched Xia Zhiyi's arm, and even squeezed it.
Xia Zhiyi was shocked: "What do I rely on you for!"
Instinctively, she patted Master Gu's hand away, quickly retracted her arm, and hid behind Jing Ruyu.
Jing Ruyu raised her hand to protect her, stared at Master Gu with unfriendly eyes, and said coldly: "What do you want to do?"
Master Gu turned a deaf ear to it, shook his head to himself, and said regretfully, "You are too skinny, with little flesh."
He looked at Xia Zhiyi and narrowed his eyes with a smile: "You should eat more and raise meat, it's not good to be too thin."
Then he turned to Jing Ruyu: "You have to eat more, you all have to eat more."
"Xiao Qiao," Mr. Gu turned to look at the task NPC, "I need to prepare more delicious food for the guests these few days. Don't treat the distinguished guests badly, and don't starve the distinguished guests. My Gu family still doesn't lack this little money."
Xiao Qiao's drooping eyes should be.
Master Gu turned his head to look at them again, smiled kindly at them, and then led a group of people around them and walked straight away.
As soon as they left, Jing Ruyu turned around and pushed away Xia Zhiyi's sleeves to see where she was pinched - nothing happened.
"Did he pinch you?" Jing Ruyu said while putting down her sleeves.
Xia Zhiyi was confused by Master Gu's actions, she rubbed the pinched place: "It hurts a little, but it's okay.
"By the way, I just met him. He has a temperature and is a person."
Jing Ruyu nodded.
Xia Zhiyi recalled Master Gu's appearance just now, and the more he thought about it, the more strange his attitude became.
"However, do you think this Master Gu's attitude is very strange? It doesn't seem like he is afraid that we will be too hungry to work, nor does it seem that the elders care about the health of the younger generation, but rather..."
"Buying meat in the vegetable market dislikes the lack of meat."
Xia Zhiyi thought of something and was slightly taken aback.
"He can't...cannibalize people?"
The author has something to say:
Wives and wives just want to be wicked and tidy!
